Betsy’s Portfolio of Editing & Writing
“My editor, Betsy Blondin, challenged me to do better each time I sat down to write.” J. Oakes, author, Maximum Impact Education
“You indeed were extremely instrumental in producing the quality of our book. You have always been not only creative, but also very precise, responsible and diplomatic. As I mentioned many times in the past, this was extremely appreciated by me as I am sure it was by others involved.”
PBF, Medical Editor
“Besides being a joy to work with, Betsy is a detail-oriented person who is able to manage several projects at a time. Her job title and responsibilities fluctuated many times and she was able to adapt easily and willingly.” LP
“Betsy is an excellent proofreader and copy editor! She went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure my book was absolutely error free. She communicates well, adheres to deadlines, and instills confidence. I appreciated that she respected my writing, and that her changes only made it clearer and stronger. I highly recommend Betsy if you need someone to edit your book!” K. Brody, author
